The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, and the food feels very intentional. I tried a mix of living foods and cooked dishes, and everything was flavorful, balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. The olive cheese dip and wild rice dishes were especially memorable, and the newer menu items were comforting without feeling heavy. This is the kind of restaurant you visit when you want more than just a meal — it’s an experience that leaves you feeling nourished and grounded. Highly...

Au Lac’s food is pure artistry and very aesthetically pleasing. I love that they specialize in raw/living cuisine AND comfort food. I can take anyone there! Updated from previous review on 2026-01-09

I came here exclusively to try the vegan pho, and I was not disappointed! The broth was light and flavorful, the noodles were fresh, and it had great veggies and « chikn » that gave it even more flavor and texture. The space itself is quite dark and moody, perhaps more suited to evening dining than a casual lunch. The menu is expansive, so I’ll definitely be back to try something else.
